[Mesh] Bringing young people in the community: Google Code-In 2017

Hi everyone, I'm Federico Capoano, some of you may know me for my involvement with Ninux, NetJSON, OpenWISP and contribution to several editions of the Google Summer of Code with Freifunk. OpenWISP has been accepted into the Google Code-In: https://codein.withgoogle.com/organizations/openwisp/ By participating in this program we hope to attract many new young contributors in the world of open source networking, free wifi and similar topics. We aim at proposing easy tasks related to documentation, tutorials, fixing small code issues, UX improvements and so on. We are looking for mentors that share similar goals with us and want to get involved, for those of you that are following the NetJSON development or using some OpenWISP tool, this would be a good time to start contributing! We are also open to accept mentors that want to propose tasks that are not directly related to NetJSON and OpenWISP, as long as they are aimed at creating an ecosystem of interoperable tools for community networks, free wifi and open source networking. Important notes: - we want mentors to take care of the tasks they propose - please read the GCI rules, in particular section 2, 4 and 5: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gci/resources/contest-rules - take a look at the tasks proposals we are working on (we will export this collaborative spreadsheet to CSV) and import it using the GCI API: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nNNN6Db8fS3KtijO9BJB2YHmMzU20OUBoFr… If interested, please get in touch with us via our support channels (IRC, mailing list, gitter) http://openwisp.org/support.html or reply in private to me (in order to avoid cross-post hell). Thank you for your attention! Best regards Nemesis
